Standard #:	8VAC20-780-40-E
Description:	The operational responsibilities of the licensee shall include ensuring that the center's activities, services, and facilities are maintained in compliance with these standards and the terms of the current license issued by the department. The terms of the center?s license include a stipulation that reads ?Only in classrooms #4 and #5 may children under 2 ? years of age be provided care.? The stipulation is to ensure the center is in compliance with the certificate of occupancy issued by the City, which says children under 2 ? are to be cared for in a room with direct egress. The center had a divider that split room #4 into a separate infant and toddler room, resulting in no direct egress in the toddler room. Technical assistance was provided to the center on 01/21/2025 regarding the direct egress requirement.
Plan of Correction:	A door that leads to the outside was installed in the toddler half o the room so that they have direct egress.
